That is the idea behind Ask for Angela, a UK campaign to help people leave unsafe dates discreetly. If someone feels uncomfortable, they can ask the bartender: “Is Angela here?” Staff are meant to be trained to know this is a signal for help. They can step in, call a taxi, or arrange a safe exit. The design is elegant: - A simple, memorable code - Low cost - Easy to spread But when reporters tested it, about half of venues failed to respond properly. Staff hadn’t been trained, or forgot what to do. This happens often with programmes. Even the simplest ideas can fail without a system to support them.
A psychiatrist couldn’t keep up with the demand for mental health care. So he hired grandmothers. He asked himself a simple question: who do people already trust with their problems? The majority said it was grandmothers. They are wise, respected and embedded in the community. He trained them in basic therapy for common mental health disorders and gave them benches in public spaces. The results speak for themselves : → Thousands sought support → Depression symptoms dropped → A randomised trial showed it worked better than standard primary care
How to win the waiting game after making your speaking pitch to an event organizer.
Unlike previous research, we were unable to show that higher monetary incentives were more effective for increasing response rates. An AUD$20 unconditional incentive may be no more effective than a lesser amount for encouraging prostate cancer survivors to participate in research involving long questionnaires.

There’s so much to admire in this. Where to begin? First off, the way it kicks against outdoor porn in the first few seconds, going from a wispy vocal song to hardcore thrash metal. Then you’ve got the wonderful mash-up, using (deep breath)… — animated cartoons — videogames — weather reports — documentary (hello Aron Ralston) — user-generated content — medical X-rays — allegory (Death chasing a runner) And finally… — a product demo. Plus what a wonderful script: “Mother Nature can be a real motherf… That’s why Columbia engineers everything we make from anything nature can throw at you.” Topped by the superb endline, which might have been written by a copywriter with 50 years’ experience or a dope-smoking 17-year-old on day release: Engineered for Whatever.

This session explores how Harmony Labs and Earth Alliance collaborated to identify and engage audiences missing from the climate conversation, blending together in one pilot project groundbreaking behavioral media research with influencer partnerships and media testing and iteration. Harmony Labs Executive Director Brian Waniewski shares key research findings and showcase how these findings informed an influencer media strategy to connect with untapped audiences, offering climate communicators new pathways for engaging diverse communities. (04:29–06:55) They created content with 60 creators through co-productions and a creators fund—rather than scripted ads—with two goals: engagement and transporting audiences toward awareness, pro-climate futures, and participation. (07:26–09:14) Using their Narrative Observatory, they tracked media behavior from half-million US panelists, mapping how people move through media and which values shape their consumption. (09:14–13:07) Identified a key overlooked group: the “If You Say So” audience—online, culture makers who avoid news—so they tailored content to their values (autonomy, fun), not traditional activist messaging.
I like these lists of different campaign development and implementation approaches separated out by low/mid/high cost.

Furthermore, Gen Z is rejecting traditional advertising which paints a picture of a happier, more beautiful, successful life. For them, it’s about identity. If your content doesn’t make Gen Z say “That’s so me,” then it’s not worth their time.
This checklist is an instrument to help public health departments and communicators improve trust and communication, especially in anticipation of serious public health issues, health emergencies, and when misleading rumors are abundant. To develop the checklist, the project team collected data on frequently observed rumors during public health emergencies (PHEs), interventions to address such rumors and improve trust, and the experiences of 100 key informant public health experts and practitioners working on the front lines. The checklist reflects current communication science and the voices and lived experiences of public health communicators who have worked in an environment of persistent rumors and declining trust in public health. The checklist provides public health communicators with tools, resources, and internal advocacy opportunities organized across 5 priority sections. These sections can be broadly described as 1) focusing on internal operations, 2) building connections with the community, 3) establishing opportunities with “secondary messengers,” 4) anticipating loss of trust in a PHE, and 5) creating meaningful and accessible messages.
Increasingly the landscape of Impact Measurement is crowded, dynamic and contains a diversity of frameworks and approaches — which can mean we end up feeling like we’re looking at alphabet soup. As we’ve traversed this landscape we’ve tried to make sense of it in various ways, and have begun to explore a matrix to represent the constellation of frameworks, approaches and models we’ve encountered in the process.
When the word ‘vulnerable’ is used as an adjective to describe people, such as ‘vulnerable consumers’ this risks causing harm (or more harm) to those experiencing vulnerability. We recommend that ‘vulnerability’ is used as a noun to describe the situation people experience, suchas ‘consumer vulnerability’ rather than as an adjective to modify a noun (see Macdonald et al.,2021). The use of person-first terminology is consistent with adopting a strengths-based approachto customer vulnerability (Raciti et al. 2022, Russell-Bennett et. al. 2023). This addresses one ofthe harm factors listed above by taking away the stigma incumbent with assigned labels. Forpolicymakers or practitioners who aim to focus on addressing those who are at a higher risk ofharm, we suggest the following term is optimal: “consumers experiencing heightened vulnerability” (CEHV). The shorter term to use outside this framework is “consumers experiencing vulnerability”.

The Cultural Currents Institute's proprietary SPREAD framework is ideal for testing and refining messages and strategies at the conceptual phase, diagnosing and troubleshooting campaigns that may be struggling after launch, and accelerating efforts that have already found some success. The core concepts of the framework are introduced here. Simple to Remember and Share Plausible to its Intended Audience Relatable to Common Lived Experience Emotional and Evocative Actionable With Clear Steps Duplicable With Low Effort and High Fidelity
Our study suggests that concerns around personalization and AI persuasion are warranted, reinforcing previous results by showcasing how LLMs can outpersuade humans in online conversations through microtargeting. We emphasize that the effect of personalization is particularly remarkable given how little personal information was collected (gender, age, ethnicity, education level, employment status and political affiliation) and despite the extreme simplicity of the prompt instructing the LLM to incorporate such information (see Supplementary Section 2.5 for the complete prompts). Even stronger effects could probably be obtained by exploiting individual psychological attributes, such as personality traits and moral bases, or by developing stronger prompts through prompt engineering, fine-tuning or specific domain expertise.

But because the very act of providing an answer closes the loop. You've solved the riddle. The thrill of the chase is over. Now everyone else is just expected to take your precious answer and dutifully apply it – to products, campaigns, media plans – without having experienced the journey that got you there.
